Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who works with teens (13+) and adults through life’s changes and challenges. I support clients with self-esteem, grief, relationship issues, academic stress, and family dynamics. I welcome individuals from all walks of life, including military families, blended families, and those seeking counseling that is faith-based or secular. My goal is to help you feel understood and confident as you move forward.

My approach to therapy

My style is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I create a safe space where you can share your story and explore new ways to grow. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, EFT, and Solution-Focused Therapy, tailoring each session to your needs. Together, we focus on building clarity, resilience, and meaningful change in your life.

What you can expect from me

You can expect a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported. We’ll work on building self-awareness, coping skills, and confidence to handle life’s challenges. My goal is for you to leave each session with more clarity, practical tools, and a sense of hope for what’s ahead.
